 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Current diagnostic imaging modalities provide accurate, non-invasive, and rapid means of diagnosis in the emergency department. However, current diagnostic imaging use has drawn the attention of the public, policy makers, and payers with questions regarding the appropriateness, cost-effectiveness, and safety of current utilization practices. The area of emergency department diagnostic imaging is ripe for investigation into etiologies for current practices and interventions to ensure consistent and appropriate use of these modalities. This grant seeks funding for the 2015 AEM Consensus Conference titled "Diagnostic Imaging Utilization in the Emergency Department: A Research Agenda to Optimize Utilization" which will be held on May 12, 2015 in San Diego, CA. The overarching goal of the conference is to develop a multidisciplinary, high priority research agenda to improve and optimize diagnostic imagining utilization in the emergency department. This goal will be achieved through the following specific aims: 1) critically examine the state of science regarding diagnostic imaging utilization in the emergency department and identify opportunities, limitations, and gaps in knowledge of previous study designs and methodology; 2) develop a consensus statement that emphasizes the priorities and opportunities for research in emergency diagnostic imaging that will result in practice changes and the most effective methodological approaches to emergency diagnostic imaging research; and, 3) explore and improve investigators' knowledge of specific funding mechanisms available to perform research in emergency diagnostic imaging. For 14 years, Academic Emergency Medicine, the second largest peer-reviewed emergency medicine journal, has hosted a one-day Consensus Conference in a salient topic in emergency medicine with the explicit purpose of generating a research agenda on which to base future investigation. The 2015 conference will bring together researchers, policy makers, funding agencies, and other experts and relevant stakeholders to generate such an agenda in the field of emergency department diagnostic imaging. The conference will have 2 plenary speakers who will discuss diagnostic imaging as a quality measure and the national influential campaigns developed to increase awareness and appropriateness of use, Image Wisely and Image Gently. In addition, there will be 2 panel discussions regarding quality measures and reimbursement, and funding opportunities for emergency department diagnostic imaging research. Finally, and most importantly, there will be a total of 7 breakout groups focusing on the key aspects of imaging research, led by experts in the field. The conference will culminate with publication of the proceedings in Academic Emergency Medicine and other specialty journals in order to maximize dissemination of the conference output.

 描述（由适用提供）：当前的诊断成像方式提供了急诊科的准确，无创和快速的诊断手段。但是，当前的诊断成像使用吸引了公众，政策制定者和付款人的注意，并提出了有关当前利用实践的适当性，成本效益和安全性的问题。急诊室诊断成像领域已经成熟，以便对当前做法和干预措施进行病因投资，以确保对这些方式保持一致和适当的使用。该赠款寻求为2015年AEM共识会议的资金，标题为“急诊科的诊断成像利用：一项优化利用率的研究议程”，该议程将于2015年5月12日在加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥举行。会议的总体目标是制定一个多学科的高优先研究议程，以改善和优化急诊室的诊断成像利用率。该目标将通过以下特定目的实现：1）批判性地检查有关急诊室诊断成像利用的科学状态，并确定先前研究设计和方法论知识知识的机会，局限性和差距； 2）制定共识声明，强调紧急诊断成像中研究的优先级和机会，这将导致实践变化以及最有效的紧急诊断成像研究的方法论方法； 3）探索和提高研究人员对可用于在紧急诊断成像中进行研究的特定资金机制的了解。 14年来，第二大经过同行评审的急诊医学杂志学术急诊医学一直在急诊医学的一个显着主题中举办了为期一天的共识会议，其明确目的是产生研究议程，以基于未来的投资。 2015年的会议将召集研究人员，政策制定者，资助机构以及其他专家和相关利益相关者在急诊室诊断成像领域产生这样的议程。该会议将有2位全体会议者，他们将讨论诊断成像作为一种质量衡量标准，以及为提高对使用的认识和适当性，明智和明智的形象而发展的国家影响力。此外，还将进行有关质量措施和报销的2个小组讨论，以及新兴部门诊断成像研究的资金机会。最后，最重要的是，由该领域的专家领导的成像研究的关键方面，总共将有7个突破组。该会议将随着学术急诊医学和其他专业期刊的诉讼的发表而达到顶峰，以最大程度地传播会议产出。
